Golden Globe winner and Emmy Award nominee Kim Cattrall will be joining Peacock’s vibrant drama series Queer As Folk, a reimagining of the groundbreaking British series created by Russell T. Davies. https://twitter.com/pride_site/status/1458163087584993282 The former Sex and the City star will reportedly play a martini-soaked, high society southern debutant with trailer park roots. Does that sound perfect or what? The new incarnation of Queer As Folk will follow a diverse group of friends in New Orleans whose lives are transformed in the aftermath of a tragedy. The original U.S. iteration of the show was set in Pittsburgh and aired on Showtime from 2000-2005. In addition to the QAF news, Cattrall has also recently wrapped the film About My Father with Robert DeNiro and is currently shooting the Hulu series “How I Met My Father.” https://twitter.com/mattygalea_/status/1458156325054017538 Previously announced cast members for QAF include: • Devin Way (he/him) (Grey’s Anatomy, Station 19) will play a charming and sometimes chaotic commitment-phobe who finds a reason to stay in New Orleans after tragedy rocks his community. • Fin Argus (he/him/they/them) (Clouds, The Gifted) will play a cocky high schooler whose confidence belies his lack of real world experience. • Jesse James Keitel (she/her) (Big Sky), who will play a trans, semi-reformed party girl who is struggling to grow up. • Candace Grace (they/them) (Acts of Crime) will play a non-binary professor navigating the rocky transition from punk to parenthood. • Johnny Sibilly (he/him) (Hacks, Pose) will play a successful lawyer who is not as put together as he seems. • Ryan O’Connell (he/him) (Special, Will & Grace) will play a pop culture nerd with cerebral palsy who is more than ready for some independence. https://twitter.com/hellfiregay/status/1458178624364990472
